Terra Spencer

Windsor, Nova Scotian Terra Spencer discovered her love of crafting intimate songs while working as a funeral director and touring with country musician Ryan Cook. Since her 2018 solo debut, she has won over audiences in the Maritimes and abroad, marrying fingerstyle guitar, gospel piano, and her butterscotch voice with onstage humour and ease. Marrying folk singer/songwriting with sonic influences of 70's studio records, Terra’s second album Chasing Rabbits is a collection of winter songs about long-distance love, wildlife encounters, and places that feel like home. In a room of 5 or 500, every show is a knee-to-knee conversation with a natural storyteller.

“Terra Spencer is a sparklingly intelligent writer, open-hearted, insightful and eloquent. As natural a poet as ever put pen to paper and a soul as beautiful as her melodies would imply. ” - David Francey

"The real deal." - Ron Sexsmith
